What part of Texas has the best, no-windy weather?

Try East. Much more forested; the pines and rolling country help keep down the wind. And not so dry and hot, either.

Surely you jest? Best weather in Texas? If we had weather like California, this state would look like India. Or maybe even SoCal. West - hot, dry, and windy. South - hot, humid, and windy. North - hot and windy. East - hot and humid, although today was splendid. Low of 35 and high of 57. June, July, and August is what keeps Texas from looking like Pahkistan.

Up near Newfoundland. That's far north Texas.

Down here in the Heart of Texas, if it don't have a stinger in it's mouth, it's got one in its tail. The grassburrs bite the ankles. We have fleas the size of housecats and ticks that just suck a dog dry to the bone.

Summer heat looks like a nuke just hit, and winter winds don't have the promise of snow to moderate the temps, and hold in a little heat.

The girls are gap-toothed and ugly, the men are slow speaking and quick to anger.

Honestly? Call the State Department and ask what shots you need before you venture into the Heart of Texas.

It's an ugly place.

If I owned hell and Texas, I'd rent Texas and live in hell. ;)

Only bright spot is that Texans never exagerate.

Texas is pretty big so there is a variety in the weather.

As a general rule,, the further West you go and the further fromt he coast you go, the less rain. Means the SE part of state east of Houston is the wettest, and El Paso and Amarillo the driest.

As to wind, there is more wind typically in the drier climates, and right along the coast. The coast offers temperate weather as I recall living in Corpus Christi along the bay and never wore anything but a light sweater all winter.

East Texas, roughly everything East of a line between Dallas and Houston is not windy at all, gets good moisture and is pretty with all the forests and rolling hills.
That’s where I have our ranch.
